Giant Easy Blanching Cauliflower
This is now recognized by market gardeners as the leading cauliflower and over four hundred acres of this variety were planted in the Northwest last year from our seed. The large, solid, pure white heads are produced near the ground on short stems but the leaves are extra long, while the inner leaves fold closely about the head making them almost self protecting. This self protecting habit insures a greater number of first grade heads and the long leaves protect the heads in hauling or crating. The plants have strong vitality and are unusually free from disease. Practically every plant makes a fine head. For fall cutting sow the same as Gilt Edge. Tests for three years prove this sort especially valuable for early spring cutting. Pkt., 20c; ¼ oz., $1.00; oz., $3.00; ¼ lb., $9.00; lb., $32.00
